Description

"This observation protocol is structured around three key elements of an effective Professional Learning Community (PLC): Shared Vision and Ways of Working, Collaboration, and Reflective Dialogue. These three elements combine to help foster open communication among group members so that they develop common norms, vision, and goals. The two main purposes of this protocol are to help groups 1) build and deepen a shared understanding of what it means to work effectively as a PLC, and 2) provide a meaningful tool for self- monitoring a PLC's development."
